Ox Low submitted by twentytrees on 7th Jun 2006. A rare Oval barrow 19.5x12m located on a shelf of land below Bradwell Moor looking west between Ox Low hill and Eldon Hill, to the barrow on Gautries Hill. Oval barrows are usually dated to the Neolithic although finds of a boar's tusk and perforated stone hammer suggest this one was reused in the Bronze Age.
